We are organizers from the #OccupyICEPDX movement. Ask Us Anything!

Posted: 29 Jun 2018 03:05 PM PDT

OccupyICEPDX was started by a small group of people who came together from various organizations and activist communities to occupy the ICE facility in Portland. Our movement's goal is simple: to abolish ICE. We fight in solidarity with undocumented immigrants, who face violence from ICE and DHS every single day. As organizers, we engage in many different aspects of the abolition movement and face the many challenges of resisting ICE operations and objectives. This occupation has gotten a lot of attention, but is only one piece of that larger struggle and while we aren't sure when it will end, we know that will just mark the beginning.


Today's AMA participants:

Alan Saltine is a void anarchist, misandrist and anti-racist organizer. They like sandwiches, Detroit House and proletariat revolutions.

El Pachuco is a person from street street and of Mexican ancestry. They're an extreme world backpacker, a water protector, a farmer and a radical organizer for food independence, a just transition and sacred spaces for human rights.

Tesla Park is a radical activist and community builder, whose ideology for organizing is based in the concepts of solidarity economy and reciprocity. They appreciate cats, lighthearted animes, and melancholic poetry

It's Saturday morning, folks. Let's all kick back with a cup of coffee and share some cartoons!

Feel free to share political cartoons (no memes/image macros, though) in this thread. The subject doesn't have to be US politics and can be from any time. Just keep them political and safe for work.
